The Second Master of Red Mansion Chapter 497 Fourth Sister, Sister Lin!

Daiyu's shopping is completely different from Princess Zhaoyang's.

That day, I accompanied Princess Zhaoyang to the border market. She wanted to look at and play with everything, and she wanted to buy anything that was pleasing to the eye and easy to carry.

But Daiyu is different.

Accompanying Jia Lian while walking in the bustling market, Daiyu basically just looked around. Except for occasionally seeing things that she found interesting but couldn't understand the purpose of, she would choose to ask Jia Lian. Other times, she didn't even talk much.

Say, let alone what you want to buy.

For example, when he passed by a vendor selling candied haws on the street, Jia Lian saw that Daiyu's eyes were fixed on the red candied haws, so he stopped the vendor.

"Sir, do you want to buy candied haws on a stick for all the ladies to try? These are all made by the little one at home. The little one has been selling candied haws in Jinling City for almost ten years. The taste is absolutely good. I bet you ladies will still want to eat it...

…”

Not to mention the style and appearance of Jia Lian and Daiyu, even the two maids Zijuan and Xueyan have good temperament and luxurious clothes, so they are automatically regarded as first-rate ladies by the vendors.

Jia Lian interrupted his boasting with a wave of his hand and bought three candied haws.

Zijuan and Xueyan naturally took it with thanks, but Daiyu hesitated for a moment before taking it slowly.

In fact, she didn't really want to eat this kind of food. She just looked at it a few more times because she thought it looked good. The most important thing was that the street was full of people and dusty, so she felt it was not very clean.

"Girl, why don't you eat it?" Xueyan bit into a candied haws and chewed it up, finding it delicious. Seeing that Daiyu was just holding it, she asked.

Daiyu was embarrassed to let down Jia Lian's kindness. She picked up the candied haws and was about to try it when she suddenly heard an excited voice in front of her.

"Fourth sister, why are you out too?"

A young man of thirteen or fourteen years old, looking slightly drunk, walked towards me with a very happy expression.

Jia Lian and Daiyu looked up and looked surprised.

Jia Lian was okay. After a brief moment of surprise, he immediately remembered something and his expression became very interested.

Daiyu opened her mouth wide in surprise, looking at the person coming in disbelief.

The young man running towards her was the same as Jia Baoyu from Rongguo Mansion in Beijing, both in appearance, temperament and dress.

If Daiyu hadn't been thoughtful and knew that it was impossible to meet Jia Baoyu here, she would have almost screamed.

After thinking about it carefully, I was sure that if it was Jia Baoyu, he would definitely say "Sister Lin" when he saw her. How could he call her "Fourth Sister".

She looked towards Jia Lian, wanting to see if Jia Lian was also surprised. Unfortunately, Jia Lian didn't seem shocked at all, but the two girls Xue Yan next to her, like her, opened their mouths in shock.

Yan turned to look at them and murmured: "Why is Mr. Bao here?"

"stop!"

Different from the reaction of Jia Lian and others, although Zhang Yong and others also felt that the drunk boy in front of them looked similar to the second master Bao in the mansion, they quickly confirmed that the person who came was not Jia Baoyu, but just a resemblance.

Seeing that she wanted to get close to Daiyu, she immediately stepped forward to stop her.

"What are you doing? Why are you stopping me? And where do you want to go with my fourth sister?"

The young man may have only seen Daiyu in front of him, but did not see Zhang Yong and others next to him at all. In his haste, he bumped into Zhang Yong's arms and was thrown back by Zhang Yong like a chicken.

"Bold, do you know who my second master is?" The boy beside the boy quickly stepped forward to protect him and scolded Zhang Yong loudly.

In response to this, Zhang Yong and others glared and scared him so much that he backed away.

However, following Jia Lian's order, the personal guards in helmets and armor who were far behind were speeding up to surround them when they saw what was going on.

At the same time, a hundred steps away, in front of the gate of a brothel, several young men in rich clothes also came out. One of them said apologetically to the other: "I'm sorry, brother Zi Ling, but I said today

Please come over, and when I hear Miss Qiyun's fairy voice, who would have thought that Miss Qiyun actually refused to see guests in order to prepare for the Oiran competition, alas."

"Haha, brother Zangcun, you don't have to be like this. A peerless beauty like Miss Qiyun can only be met but cannot be sought, and cannot be forced.

But it's strange to say that in previous years before the Oiran Competition was about to start, most of the top Oiran ladies from various provinces had to travel around to perform performances, so at this time, it was easier to meet them, but this year it was just the opposite.

When I came from Yangzhou before, the little girl Su Xiao from Yangzhou City also said that she was going all out to prepare for the Oiran Competition and refused to see guests. Now the girl Qiyun from Jinling City is doing the same, how strange!"

"Oh, brother Zi Ling, did you just come from Yangzhou? I heard that the salt administration there was in serious trouble, and the imperial court sent a powerful imperial envoy down. Does Brother Ling know what's going on?"

"Tsk, tsk, it's more than amazing, let me tell you..."

A few people were about to chat when they saw a boy running back in a hurry and shouting to the young man before: "The uncle is not good. The second master is surrounded by people. Please go over and have a look."

The young man's complexion suddenly changed, and he quickly glanced ahead. Then without having time to say anything to his friend, he quickly ran forward with his entourage.

Where Jia Lian and others were, the young boy was also startled by the sudden appearance of officers and soldiers.

As a direct descendant of a powerful family in Jinling City, he is usually followed by a large group of people when he goes out. Today, he only brought a few confidants with him because he was carrying his family on his back and followed his cousin and others to visit a brothel.

That's all.

[To tell you the truth, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with more sounds.

Therefore, he could understand that others were traveling with many escorts. However, this was the first time he had encountered this situation of carrying dozens of officers and soldiers with him, so he was a little confused.

Even if he was like this, let alone the young boys around him who were very arrogant and domineering just now, all of them turned pale.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What do you want to do? My second master is the son of the president of Jinling Provincial Tirenyuan, an imperial envoy personally conferred by the saint Yubi, and the younger brother of Princess Pingjun. If you dare to be disrespectful to my second master,

, keep it in case you can’t eat it and carry it around!”

When Zhang Yong and others heard that the other party introduced himself, Zhang Yong and others looked unconcerned.

Comparing status with their grandfather?

Although I don’t know what kind of official the president of the Imperial Envoy in Jinling Province is, there is a consensus among people at the time that the longer the name and the more bizarre the official position, the less valuable it is. After all, if you really have a powerful position, you don’t need to be so powerful at all.

A series of scary suffixes!

Besides, no matter how powerful it is, can it be compared to Rongguo Mansion, or to my own Marquis?

As for Princess Pingjun, I'm sorry, but unfortunately there happens to be a noble concubine in the family, who is higher than the princess. Naturally, she doesn't pay attention to a princess.

Daiyu frowned, as if she didn't expect that she would encounter such a scene in the play when she went shopping with her second brother.

She didn't like it very much, but seeing Jia Lian's smiling look that looked a little sinister, she couldn't help but curiously asked: "Does the second brother recognize them?"

Jia Lian smiled and said: "Although I don't recognize it, I have some guesses. Don't worry, sister Lin. Let me go up and ask. Maybe it was the flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young and handsome young man pushed aside the passers-by, stepped forward with his hands clasped, and said: "Don't blame this young man and young lady. It turned out that my young brother had eaten wine and must have collided with you two. I would like to express my gratitude to you."

My younger brother apologizes to you two."

The young man looked very polite,

In fact, he was a little surprised. With his knowledge, he could tell at a glance that Jia Lian and others were not locals from Jinling.

Given their family's background, it was rare for people from Jiangnan to refuse to give them face. Only people like this from the capital who didn't know their roots were easy to offend.

Moreover, the leading man was not only handsome and elegant, but also had a demeanor and a sense of calmness and authority. It made him feel that the identity of the other person was definitely extraordinary, so he put down his posture.

So low.

Jia Lian looked at the two brothers in front of him, smiled, and returned the favor with his hands, "Your Excellency, you're welcome, but it's just a misunderstanding."

After saying that, with a casual wave of his hand, his own soldiers lined up in two rows and trotted back.

When the young man saw this, his expression relaxed, and he was about to step forward with a smile to make friends, but he saw Jia Lian looking at him with a smile: "If my guess is correct, you and the young master just now are from the Zhen family in the city, right?"

"Oh, does this young master recognize us?"

"Hehehe, I am Jia Lian, from the Rongguo Mansion in the middle of the capital. Brother Yutang, I have admired you for a long time."

The young man was stunned for a moment, then he patted his head and stepped forward laughing.

"It turns out it was Brother Lian in person. Haha, I'm sorry for my blindness, but I didn't recognize my brother. He should be beaten, he should be beaten!"

The joy on the young man's face was not at all perfunctory, but truly overjoyed!

Let’s not talk about the close friendship between the Zhen and Jia families for nearly a hundred years. Although he and Jia Lian have never met, they have seen each other’s names more than once or twice.

Just because his and Jia Lian's identities and situations could be said to be almost the same in the past few years.

In the Zhen family, he helped his uncle manage the family business, while Jia Lian helped his second uncle with the housework in Beijing.

The two families have frequent exchanges, such as giving gifts during the New Year, and they receive greetings from each other. However, because the two capitals are far apart, although they have known each other for several years, they have never met each other.

But he knew that Jia Lian had now skyrocketed to fame, but he was still helping with the housekeeping at his uncle's house. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel envious and jealous.

The people around them originally thought there was a good show about a fight between the sons of powerful men, but after watching it for a long time they realized that they were actually a family. They found it boring and dispersed.

"Come on, Baoyu, why don't you come forward to pay your respects to Brother Lian!"

Zhen Yutang was really happy and wanted to pull Jia Lian but was afraid of being rude, so she turned around and pulled Zhen Baoyu, who was still looking at the other girl, and introduced to Jia Lian: "This is my cousin Baoyu.

Brother Lian must have heard of my uncle's son."

"I've heard about it. Brother Baoyu has a good reputation. As a brother, I've heard about it for a long time."

"Hahaha……"

Zhen Yutang laughed loudly. He knew that Jia Lian was laughing at Zhen Baoyu, because although his cousin was young, he had many famous things. Especially his "famous aphorisms", such as "You must have two innocent daughters to accompany you when studying."

, I can recognize the words and understand in my heart, otherwise, I must be a fool." Not only did the uncle often scold and punish him, but many of them even spread out, making the world laugh.

Zhen Baoyu didn't realize that Jia Lian was laughing at him. He still stared at Daiyu, who was hiding slightly beside Jia Lian, and murmured, "Aren't you the fourth sister?"
